August 27, 2006
Neil is starting to put words together a lot more now. Some of the best lines are “Too Tired” when he doesn't want to do something. “Mad now!” when things don’t go his way, usually accompanied by a stomping foot and a slapping of his thigh. And “____ hurt Feelings” with the offenders name first. The waiter at the restaurant asked him jokingly if he needed anything and that got him a “Man hurt feelings”
Neil loves the “man” . Meaning anything from a Garbage man, police man or Fireman all said in a breathlessly excited voice.
We were having a monsoon storm the other night and I had sent Neil up to get a diaper but every time he worked up enough courage to start up the stairs it would thunder, sending him running back “SCARED, mom!” So we had our Brave Ruth do it.
